However, she has no current plans to marry. She wears a ring around her neck on a chain called a purity ring. It says "true love waits," meaning she is going to remain a virgin until she is married. Other stars who have endorsed purity rings include Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, "American Idol" star Jordin Sparks, and most famously, the Jonas Brothers.

Demi Lovato stays away from scandal for the most part. Her biggest scandal was her admittance to a rehab facility in November of 2010 to seek treatment for cutting and bulimia. While in treatment, she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. She speaks about her new diagnosis openly to spread awareness and the message that there is help available to cope with the condition. She has been accused of seeking treatment for a drug or alcohol addiction, but the allegations proved to be false.

Like many other young Hollywood starlets, Demi has also been accused of starring in an amateur pornographic video. However, the video was just a rumor and any resulting images were fabricated. She has also had a few scandalous feuds with on-again, off-again friend and former Disney star Miley Cyrus. The two girls tend to butt heads publicly but always manage to make up and retain their friendship.

In her free time, Demi Lovato enjoys indulging in many hobbies. Many of her hobbies include what she already does in her professional career. She enjoys writing music, singing, and playing the piano. Demi is a smart, level-headed girl who does her best to stay out of trouble. She is incredibly compassionate toward others, which is demonstrated by her long list of charitable organizations she supports. Though her life is very public, she tends to be shy about it and does her best to lead a quiet life when she is not working.

Others have characterized Demi as "sweet." She cares deeply about her fans and tries to be accessible to them as much as possible. To accomplish this, she spends a lot of time on the social media site Twitter and uses it to communicate with her fans, inspire others, promote her current and upcoming projects, and spread the messages of the numerous charities she supports.
